Hi

Cold start in Languedoc, France ... -0.5C (31f) rising to about 15C (60f), but nice in the sun.

A couple of photos taken today : http://tlp.netfirms.com/newphoto93.htm

Good morning, Peter, from the SF Bay area, where rain is coming down hard, and the news broadcast mentioned flooding and thunderstorms.

Inside my kitchen, where I'm making pear strudel, it's warm and cozy. The family are still asleep and will probably straggle out soon to begin the Christmas festivities.

Your photos are beautiful and make me long to lie lazily in the sun in the South of France! I can tell from the shadows that you were out early with your camera.

Grey skies and drizzly in Belgium, temp. about 48F. And completely dark already (5.50 pm). Not what I would call the perfect Xmas weather.
But inside it's cozy and warm. The cats are curled up in front of the fireplace, the lights in the Xmas tree are twinkling and good smells are coming out of the kitchen. This IS Christmas!

Connecticut had pouring down rain Christmas Eve with warm 55 degree temp, which was hard on travelers. Christmas Day is clear, sunny and about 50 degrees. Not exactly a perfect New England Christmas, but when you are with your friends and family, the weather doesn't matter.
Merry Christmas to everyone - everywhere.

It's 8 pm here in Kuwait - had a nice cool day with temps in the 60's. Almost (but not quite) makes up for those dog days of summer with temps as high as 130 F.

I want snow!

Merry Christmas, Peter, it's raining here, I'm listening to some olde French Christmas music played on old instruments.

Peter: Your pictures are enchanting. Here in Montreal, it's 10 degrees C, very warm for this time of the year. We've had a lot of rain. But the Christmas spirit is with us.
Joyeuses Fêtes à tous !

P.S. Peter is that your boat in the picture. I rememberyou sailed to the Grand Motte before.

The weather near Houston where I live is a coolish 59F but sunny. Yesterday was gorgeous! Very unusual for Houston this time of year.

Yesterday was sunny and cold in Dresden/Germany. A (very) little snow added to the magical ambience. Perfect weather for the going to the Christvesper in the church of the Holy Cross.

Today it is grey sky, but still a white Christmas.

Buon Natale. It 48 and grey here - the city is wonderfully quiet and still. A bottle of champagne and smoke salmon for breakfast, meeting friends for an afternoon movie and then Indian food for dinner. Happiness and health to all....

Cloudy and gray here in Inglewood, California--Yes!! I finally get to burn my fireplace on Christmas day, haven't been able to do so in years.

Here in Arcadia CA,(Pasadena CA area) grey and rainy. 61F. Getting ready to feed the "kids" and granddaughters. Grey outside but warm and cheery inside.
Oh Yes! Fire in the fireplace.

MERRY CHRISTMAS :-B

Hi cigalechanta

No it's not my boat.

Mine is the one in the tiny pic on my new website header !

Lovely rainy weather here in San Diego and we couldn't be happier. Makes the fire seem all that much cozier.

Sunny and probably low 70s here in South Florida.

From beautifull Northwest Montana it is partly cloudy and 36 degrees with pure white snow on the mountain tops.

Peace to all.

POURING in Hollywood..I don't like it.

Hi all,
Yesterday, Christmas Day, it was fine, hot, 35deg Centigrade, in the beautiful Blue Mountains west of Sydney Australia.Typical Christmas weather but luckily lacking the horrendous bushfires of the last 3 years. Airconditioning on and relaxed.
Happy Christmas all
Rosemary

A beautiful 85 degrees, sunny, with nice trade winds, and crystal blue water in the West Indies. Merry Christmas, everyone!
